The fact that anyone does not want to go to college is absolutely astounding. That they think they will be better off graduating from high school and getting a jog that that somehow makes them free is absolutely ridiculous. Not only is college necessary for a successful future, it is actually fun.
The Alternative
The alternative to college is to graduate from high school, move out on your own, and get a job. If your rational for not going to school is that you are an adult, well then be an adult and don t live at home with mom and dad. Getting a job without a college degree is incredibly difficult. Whereas perhaps 30 or 40 years ago you could have just a high school diploma and be successful, today a college degree is considered the bare minimum of education. If you are lucky enough to get a job, you will have to work at least 9 to 5 for a low wage that will barely cover all of the bills that come with being an adult: rent, car payments, food, electric, etc... The first and foremost reason to go to college is that the alternative is miserable and a dead end. Education is important and necessary if you want to be successful and able to enjoy your life.
It s Fun!
While high school may not be for most and some people hate school from Kindergarten on, college is not like that. College is basically a four year vacation and party. Yes there are classes, yes there is school work all of which is important to get done, no sense in paying all the money for college if you re going to fail out but classes and work do not take up most of your time. College is filled with keg parties and football games and living on your own without footing the bill and without mom and dad telling you what time to be home and asking where you are going. College has all of the perks of being an adult and living on your own without out all of the downsides. The majority of people who have graduated from college will say how much they wish they could go back and those who are in college never want to leave. College is four of the most fun years one will have in their lifetime.
You Choose
Up until college all of your educational decisions were chosen for you, what classes you took and what teachers you had. In college you get to study what interests you. You decide what classes you take, which professors you have, and what your major is. You may not have liked school when you were forced to take classes, but when you are studying things that you enjoy and are interested in, you might find that you actually enjoy school. You choose what you want to take and in effect choose your future. College will prepare you for a successful career with options that are limitless and you will have fun doing it.
